Minnesota has been solid on both sides of the ball. Napheesa Collier continues to lead the way, averaging 20.4 points and 9.8 rebounds per game. She’s been a force inside and a key reason why the Lynx are holding opponents to just 76.1 points per game. 

The defense has been stout, giving up fewer points than the Fever, and the ability to lock down defensively, especially in transition, has given them a consistent edge. Offensively, Minnesota has also been efficient, with 44.8% shooting from the field and 23.3 assists per game, indicating a balanced attack.

On the other side, the Indiana Fever have found a groove, especially offensively, where they’re averaging 84 points per game. Kelsey Mitchell and Caitlin Clark have been offensive forces, scoring 19 points and 18.9 points per game respectively. While they’ve allowed more points (86.5 PPG) than they’ve scored this season, recent form has been impressive, with the offense firing on all cylinders. 

Mitchell’s leadership and Clark’s ability to stretch defenses with 3-point shooting have made Indiana dangerous, especially at home, where they boast a 10-5 record. Defensively, Indiana will need to improve interior defense, as they allowed 90 points in the last meeting against Minnesota.

Lynx vs Fever Pick Analysis

Minnesota’s defensive prowess will be the difference-maker in this one, as they’ve consistently held teams below their scoring average. While the Fever have momentum, the Lynx have shown they can beat them and should do so again. Final Score Prediction: Minnesota Lynx win and cover 85-80.
